After only 20 minutes, Duan Lingfei arrived at the zither room. Through the glass window, he could already see Lin Xiyue practicing his zither.

Lu Min was initially listening from the side, but when she saw Duan Lingfei's figure, she immediately came out to welcome him in surprise.

"Duan Lingfei, why did you come so quickly?"

"For the sacred music!" Duan Lingfei answered seriously.

If it was anyone else who said these words, Lu Min would definitely look down on him from the bottom of her heart. But for some reason, when Duan Lingfei said these words, Lu Min subconsciously believed him.

If he didn't really love music, how could he have such a high talent for playing music!

"You've come at the right time. Your Senior-apprentice Sister Lin is practicing inside. I heard that it's to prepare for next week's talent show. You can give me some advice when you come!"

"Elite talent show?"

"You still don't know?" "Next week, the first live rehearsal of the variety show" Who is the Musician "hosted by Jianghai Television will be held. It is said that the winner will have the chance to enter the acting company for further study and receive a sky-high contract for endorsement.

The "Who is the Musician" program was a large-scale music reality show created by the Jianghai Television Station and the Huang Hui Media. It consisted of several famous musicians in the country and provided the most professional comments and guidance to the contestants.

These musicians are not limited to singers, but can also be instruments players or dancers, thus attracting many young people to sign up.

The musician selected by the expert would receive a complete package, be guided by a professional, and would also sign a contract with a well-known performing company in the country. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he or she would ascend to the heavens in a single step.

Although Lin Xiyue was a young man, he still yearned for such an opportunity. To put it bluntly, who wouldn't want to have more opportunities to show off and show off on the stage?

Therefore, she had been training hard in the zither room these past few days in order to perform at her best in the talent show.

With Duan Lingfei's current level of music theory, after listening at the side for a while, he could easily tell that Lin Xiyue was playing the famous musician Rahmaninov's "Third Piano Concerto".

This piece of music is full of the spirit of perseverance and strong vitality, and the composer's personal strength is also most fully displayed in this work.

Rahmaninov himself, when he first played as a soloist in New York, called his concerto "The Elephant," a metaphor for its size and heaviness.

A famous musician once described the performance of the third piano concerto. His physical effort was equivalent to shoveling ten tons of coal. While it was a bit exaggerated, it also reflected the difficulty of playing the piano piece.

As a prodigy pianist, Lin Xiyue was naturally aware of the difficulty of this piece. However, in order to leave a deep impression on her instructor during the talent show, she chose to use this piece after hesitating for a while.

At this moment, Lin Xiyue had clearly completely immersed herself in playing the piano. Her two hands were like sewing machines as they flew up and down, and a series of dense and boundless musical notes flowed out from the piano. In order to maintain such a rhythmic playing, Lin Xiyue's forehead was already filled with sweat.

Duan Lingfei and Lu Min quietly listened from the side. After a few minutes, the last melody slowly dissipated into the air, and Lin Xiyue finally let out a long breath, escaping from his concentrated state.

"Teacher, how was my performance?" Lin Xiyue turned his head and asked, but he immediately noticed Duan Lingfei's figure and frowned: "The zither room forbids random people to enter, why are you here as a rogue?"

Without waiting for Duan Lingfei to speak, Lu Min had already spoke up in defense: "Xi Yue, why are you talking to Junior Brother?"

"Junior apprentice-brother?"

"That's right, although Duan Lingfei isn't a student of the Music division, I have already decided to take him in as my disciple, so you two can address him as brother." Lu Min said with a smile.

"It can't be …" Lin Xiyue's face instantly turned bitter.

She remembered seeing the rascal several times, once on the road outside the campus, once in the concert square, and once in the school gym, where he'd been fighting almost every time.

Lin Xiyue hated these kinds of fights and killings the most, so he had a bad impression of Duan Lingfei.

However, Lu Min was unaware of all of this. She only saw him smiling as he said, "Your performance just now was pretty good. It was a bit better than before. But before I comment, let's have Little Duan evaluate it first."

"Him?" Lin Xiyue's eyes revealed an unconvinced look.

"Xi Yue, don't look down on your Junior Brother Duan. In terms of music theory, he is as good as me!"

Listening to Lu Min's words, although Lin Xiyue was unwilling, he could only nod towards Duan Lingfei and ask, "Student Duan, may I ask what your evaluation of my performance just now is?"

Lu Min was talking about the Junior Brother Duan, but to Lin Xiyue, she had changed him into Student Duan.

However, Duan Lingfei didn't mind. Being able to come into contact with the Goddess at such a close distance and say a few words was already a huge improvement compared to before.

Facing the goddess's slightly hopeful eyes, Duan Lingfei decided to properly display his flattery.

"Good, you played too well! You can't find fault with that!"

"I don't need to say much more about the difficulty of this song. Senior Sister, you are actually able to play it so easily. It can be seen how accomplished you are in playing the piano. The title of a child prodigy is well-deserved."

"The entire playing process was as smooth as flowing water without any flaws. My soul obtained the essence, and my soul was sublimated. It was as if it was baptized from the inside out."

"The ancients said that the lingering music will last for three days, and I still have your zither music in my head. I can't get it out of my head. The ancients truly don't bully me!"

"Enough! Enough!" Lin Xiyue interrupted Duan Lingfei's expression: "Is this your evaluation? I don't need flattery, I need someone to point out my problems and improve my skills. "

Lu Min also said from the side: "Little Duan, don't have any concerns. If there's anything wrong with Xi Yue's playing, please be straightforward."

"Really?" Duan Lingfei was a little hesitant. What if he angered the goddess again?

"Of course, if I want someone to kiss ass to me, why would I choose you?" Lin Xiyue shook her head and said, but looking at her expression, it seemed as though she did not believe that Duan Lingfei could come up with any valuable idea.

"Fine." Duan Lingfei hesitated for a moment, and said while clenching his teeth.

Even if he offended the goddess again, it was still better than making her look down on him.
